Well most likely Canon will come out with an improved R7 in the future, perhaps by the end of the year. Canon Rumors mentions it, I found the blog on the topic a bit more enlightening as far as guesses on what it will include.

I hope so. Been wanting a crop sensor body for wildlife and birds but have been hoping for an improved R7 II.
 
Just sent my R6 Mark II and RF 28-70mm f/2.8 IS STM to MPB, after realizing that my R7 with the Sigma RF-S 18-50mm f/2.8 did the same job with less weight, and I was hardly using the full frame rig. I'll put what MPB pays me towards the R7 Mark II. For low light situations I'll use the Sigma RF-S 56mm f/1.4.
 
I'll probably send my R6ii down the road also, for the same reason. Give it to my daughter, she can take pics of her grandkids.
But I have a feeling they will change the body on the R7ii. Too many people don't like the new design, even if it is better.
So I have 3 R7s, 2 for my wildlife kit and one for backup. The R7ii will have to be a big, major, upgrade to get me to switch.
Maybe a new sensor at 40 meg. :)
 
I'm another who prefers the dial around the joystick to the traditional one lower down on the body. Unfortunately, the stick-in-the-mud full-frame crowd want the R7 to be like their toys. Leave it alone!

    Fast, sharp, and lightweight! A great lens
    This is my main workhorse of a lens and I love it. It's very light weight (only around 2.3 lbs) lens. I've been able to hand-hold it for an event...
